When it comes to Indian films' performance outside the country, the dominance has always been from 'Bollywood' i.e. the Hindi movies. However in 2022, the biggest impact at the global box-office has been of movies from South India like RRR (Telugu), KGF: Chapter 2 (Kannada) and Beast (Tamil).

KGF Chapter 2 debuts at No.2 for the weekend at Global Box Office

RRR and KGF: Chapter 2 comparatively did better than Beast at most overseas locations, but in parallel to Beast's domestic box-office, its' overseas collections were considerable. This really has gone on to prove that irrespective of languages, solid content and good promotions can really bring in a good opening pull at the global box-office.
